Michael --

The parameters are not carried over to documents but to templates.  The
document() function returns the _root node_ of the requested document. 
However, you don't have a template that matches the root node so the
built-in template is used.  The built-in template doesn't have any
parameters, so when it invokes your matchme template, the parameters are
lost.

To see the difference, change your document function to:

	document('incoming.xml')/matchme

and everything should work.
